Inventor: ARAB RA ED
IPC: H02S40/22
Filed: 2011-02-10
Abstract: A concentrated photovoltaic and thermal system is disclosed. The system compromises a photovoltaic receiver assembly that produces highly concentrated solar energy, resulting in efficient energy conversion that requires fewer photovoltaic receivers than an arrangement that lacks such high concentration levels. The receiver assembly comprises a primary optical element that concentrates the source light onto an electromagnetic energy receiver, a secondary optical element to aid in further concentration of the light source, a thermal energy converter and a heat dissipation unit. The photovoltaic receiver assembly is preferably mounted on a tracking system to maximize sun exposure.

Inventor: KAMINSKY ROBERT D
IPC: E21B43/24
Filed: 2011-06-17
Abstract: Methods for improving the quality of hydrocarbon fluids produced by in situ pyrolysis or mobilization of organic-rich rock, such as oil shale, coal, or heavy oil, are provided. The methods involve reducing the content of olefins, which can lead to precipitation and sludge formation in pipelines and during storage of produced oils. The olefin content is reduced by arranging wells and controlling well pressures such that hydrocarbon fluids generated in situ are caused to pass through and contact pyrolyzed zones in which coke has been left. This contacting chemically hydrogenates a portion of the olefins in the pyrolysis oil by reducing the hydrogen content of the coke.

Inventor: VAN ZYL LOUWRENS HERMIAS
IPC: B64C13/28
Filed: 2011-07-14
Abstract: The invention provides a wing control system aimed at countering the aeroelastic effect of twisting of a length of wing of an aircraft due to dynamic air pressure acting on an aileron of the wing. The wing control system includes a shaft extending along the length of wing and actuation means responsive to aileron control inputs to induce a variable torque T in the shaft. Outboard of the length of wing, the system operatively transfers T partially to the aileron to pivot the aileron and partially to the wing at an outboard end of the length of wing to counter twisting of the length of wing due to dynamic air pressure on the aileron. Inboard of the length of wing, the system operatively transfers T to the aircraft, e.g. to its fuselage, thereby effectively balancing the sum of the moments transferred respectively to the aileron and the wing.

Title: Methods and systems for drying materials and inducing controlled phase changes in substances
Inventor: HOGAN JOHN
IPC: F26B17/10
Filed: 2011-11-01
Abstract: Methods and systems are disclosed for drying a material or, more generally, flash evaporating a target substance having a vapor pressure threshold. The methods and systems include a conveyor conduit (14) that receives material and within which a pressure is established that is greater than the vapor pressure threshold of the target substance. The material moves through the conveyor (14) and is expelled into a pressure drop zone (19) created by one or more venturi nozzles (12). The pressure in the pressure drop zone (19) is far less than the vapor pressure threshold of the target substance. As the material encounters the pressure drop zone (19), the targeted substance in the material experiences a rapid and extreme pressure drop and simultaneously a rapid temperature increase. This causes the target substance in the material to flash evaporate virtually immediately. The resulting vapor is separated from the remaining material and the now dry material is collected for further processing or use. The vapor can be collected, condensed, exhausted, or otherwise treated depending upon the goals of a particular installation or process.
